At holiday time you can often find these chunks of chocolate at the grocery stores. This formula works for candies you dip also.

I suggest semi-sweet or special dark chocolate chips. I have also noticed, for whatever reason, that store brand chocolate chips work better as well (perhaps it is the paraffin or other filler).

I've made this twice now and both times, my melted chocolate doesn't harden well when left overnight to cool. The chocolate remains messy and smears all over the bags I put the mix into. Maybe I'm doing something wrong...I've seen other recipes where the recipes says to add shortening to the chocolate chips- I've done both..with shortening and without and I can't get it to harden over the mixture.

My son who is in the Navy also had me make it for him on our visit to see him. I am making it again for Valentines Day as gifts to my loved ones.

It worked out perfectly and made a great birthday treat for my mother (who is addicted to Moose Munch) - we made gourmet Moose munch with Godiva and Ghirardelli chocolate.
